Volunteering

Kiwanis Club of Charles County volunteers regularly for the Charles County Christmas Connection. This annual holiday drive helps provide gifts for more than 2,500 less fortunate children in Charles County, as well as food baskets for senior citizens. It is organized by Charles County Children’s Aid Society, Inc.(CCCAS), in conjunction with the Charles County Department of Social Services, Department of Community Service Office on Aging, The Salvation Army Charles County Service Unit.

Once a month Kiwanis Club of Charles County assists the Smallwood Middle School Builder’s Club in running a Bingo night at the Genesis Healthcare facility in La Plata. The residents of Genesis receive one dollar upon winning. A great time is had by all and friendships are made. For more information about Genesis, click here.

Kiwanis members serve their communities all year long. But the excitement for service really builds in April each year when Kiwanis members come together for Kiwanis One Day—a day of community service that is felt around the world. For more info about Kiwanis One Day, click here.

Here are a few of our members who participated in the cleanup at Point Lookout State Park.
